This is really secondary. Mainly, she needs Christ. That's not very far off, especially considering our culture. I'd say she's on her way to faith. At least she's not a strict materialist. This is actually very positive. Good news : the greatest living Christian apologist, William Lane...

The people who rescued them are saying they're receiving death threats.

I'm honestly for amending the Constitution to abolish freedom of religion. This is because as a Christian I know only Christians have grace to be righteous. Righteousness in a religious sense is law abiding in a societal sense. The unrighteous will be criminals, and will tear the country down...

@bro.tan Anyway, please, let's stay on-topic--your off-topic topic has been debunked, but, still, it was and is off-topic.

Nowhere in the NT are we told to observe 7th Day Sabbath, but Paul seemingly permits it for Jewish Christians who came to Christ with those convictions, while also seemingly stating those without those convictions, probably Gentile Christians, may freely not observe (Ro 14) This is the...

No. Read the OP before responding to it. Proverbs 18 13If one gives an answer before he hears, it is his folly and shame

This is false. 1. We are not under Law. 2. Paul was worried about the Galatians when they were observing days (Gal 4:10). 3. Colossians 2 says 7th Day Sabbath was a shadow of things to come, so don't let anyone judge us concerning observing it. 4. The 7th Day Sabbath was a commemoration of God's...

While I agree with these things, it is conspicuously not a response to the OP. It is off topic.

What I affirm aside, my point was I did not accuse you all of affirming disobedience.

I don't want to get drawn into a tangent, but our salvation was typed by the Jews' salvation from Egypt ("Christ our Passover Lamb"), not their entrance into the Promised Land (1 Co 10).

To be clear, I always acknowledge that you all who have been disagreeing with me do affirm obedience.

So, let's hear what you say: The unforgiving servant was forgiven but he was not saved. Therefore, he did not lose salvation when the forgiveness was rescinded. The "glitch" in your little speculation, here, is that it pertains to Christ's disciples. Jesus says, "So My Father will do to you if...

When Paul delivers the Galatians from "slavery" of being "under Law" (Gal 4:21-31) over to "freedom" (Gal 5:1), what does he deliver them to? "Faith in Christ alone"? NO! "Serve one another by faith working through love". The difference between "works" and "faith" is that one proceeds from the...

I would argue, contrary to the New Perspectivists, like Dr. N.T. Wright, "works of the Law" includes all the moral requirements (eg, no idols) : "by the works of the Law no flesh shall be justified, for by the Law comes the knowledge of sin", and "I would not have come to know sin except...

Your false interpretation has someone forgiven of all their sins without being saved. "He saved us". From what? "Wrath". Men who do not believe are ALREADY under God's "wrath" (Jn 3). What is the "wrath"? They're DEAD in sins and trespasses. When we're forgiven, we're not under wrath, we're...

LOL "If you don't agree with ME you SHALL (KING JAMESIAN LANGUAGE) see and be sorry!" You are a fool.

1. Nah, Ephesians 2 1As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, 2in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience— 3among whom we all once lived in the passions...

I think you'll enjoy the conversation here--in particular.

Actually, I was just mocking your empty grandstanding. Do you have a "chart", checking off your sins you accomplish, so you can show you're saved without works?

All of Jesus's parables teach spiritual truths via earthly truths. I am pointing to the spiritual implications of the earthly elements of the parable, as Jesus intended me to do. You don't know "the word of truth".
